Brain drain is the large scale emigration of individuals with technical skills or knowledge. This is one of the problems largely faced by Pakistan in recent years. Intelligent individuals never prefer to study further in Pakistan. Many people go abroad for undergraduate or postgraduate studies. This ain’t a good thing as Pakistan itself needs those people who are intellectually strong. Many people who are unable to find jobs here go abroad. Most of them are very much capable of finding a good job but due to uncertain political condition and better job opportunities abroad has allowed many Pakistanis to seek prospective interests outside the country.
This is not good for our country as we all are going through a major downfall in every other way. This thing definitely can’t be stopped but I think if brain drain from our country continues with such a high rate then obviously it would be another setback for us.
